One thought on “Last Call”

I tend to compare quick, hot novellas against Laura Kaye’s Hearts in Darkness as my benchmark of excellence, and it’s rare that any match up to that Gold Standard. Happily, Last Call is right up there at the top of the heap.A simple premise. Off duty firefighter Eric awakes to a ringing phone, so far, so normal. But instead of his crew chief it’s a drunken woman who thinks he’s her brother, Kevin.Oh Jesus. A drunk. He didn’t recognise the woman’s voice, so his first impulse was to sn [...]

Fireman Eric Layton receives a late night phone call from a drunk woman. She thinks it's her brother and asks him to pick her up from a bar. Before he can clear up the mistake, her phone dies. Unwilling to leave the stranger to fend for herself, he decides to be a good Samaritan and pick her up. What harm can there be in helping a citizen in need?Joanne just got dumped and fired by her boyfriend and lost her apartment. No wonder she felt the need to get good and drunk. She didn't count on drunk- [...]

Short story/novella about a fireman who receives a phone call in the middle of the night from a drunken woman. Joanne was trying to reach her brother Kevin to ask him to go pick her up at a bar because she is too wasted to drive. She dials the wrong number, reaches Eric, and he ends up going to get her. They end up having a one-night stand when Joanne is not so drunk. Fun and short, very steamy.

Last Call is a super fast, smoking hot read by Olivia Brynn. This was the first sample of Olivia’s writing for me and I must say, I am hooked. I can’t wait to get my hands on something else! Last Call was so much fun! I want to read it all over again right now and I just put it down. Speaking of putting it down, I couldn’t…not for a second. I was hooked from the opening scene to the last word. My one gripe? That it wasn’t longer. I felt like Olivia could have turned this into a full le [...]

Originally posted at: whippedcream2/201On a night out drowning her sorrows, Joanne goes just a bit too far and needs a ride home. When she dials who she thinks is her brother she gets the shock of a lifetime when Eric Layton comes to her rescue. Already dumped, fired and evicted, being picked up by this gorgeous stranger could just be the silver lining of her day. When the light of day comes, can these two make a go of it or had the rose-colored alcohol goggles made things seem hotter than they [...]

Ragan Jay's Review In Last Call, Joanne suffers a day straight out of hell when her boyfriend/boss both dumps and fires her all in one swift shot. On the advice of her older brother, she drowns her pain in liquor and ends up in bed with a very sexy, very sweet guy named Eric all because of drunk dialing. Nothing happens at first. Until she wakes up more sober than expected and urgently needs to feel like a woman. I’ve enjoyed Olivia Brynn’s work in the past and the feeling certainly hasn’t [...]

For being so short, I really enjoyed it. The hero was exactly that, when he rescues her fromher herself! LOL After getting dumped by her cheating boyfriend/boss, it hasn't been her day! Calling her brother for advice he sagely shares his wisdom, and suggests she go out and wasted! Heeding his advice, she does just that. At the end of the night, in an attempt to call her brother to come pick her up from the bar for a ride home she mis-dials, and instead reaches a stranger aka our hero Eric. While [...]

This review posted on Guilty PleasuresFantastic Novella!This is the first time I have read anything by Olivia Brynn, and it will NOT be the last. I loved her writing style and her ability to not only tell, but show a story. This book has it all. It’s crammed with hilarious drunken dialog, a sexy but incredibly sweet and caring firefighter, over protective brother, and scorching sex scenes.I am still amazed that I came to fall in love with these two characters in such a short amount of time, bu [...]

Firefighter Eric Layton receives a phone call in the middle of the night from an extremely drunk young woman who believes she is her brother. Always one to protect, Eric picks her up from the bar and drives her home wanting to drop her off only. Of course the beautiful Joanne has other plans, believing he is a friend of her brother and plans to seduce him that is if she can make it into bed.Fun quickie, I thought Joanne was very humorous she rambles and manages to embarrass herself completely bu [...]

2.5 starsThe idea was really good. The way it was executed was really good. But it felt short.This might be my fault though. For going with such big expectations in to such a short story. Had it been longer and more developed, I would have possibly rated higher.Over all, a good, hot, short. Just didn't have the 'WOW' factor I was looking for.

A very quick, short and steamy read I picked up one evening to while away a few minutes in an entertaining way ;) It was hot and I liked the HAWT Fireman, who doesn't like one right? Though it was short, it did have a happy ending and that's all I wanted from this read :P

This was not very long, but it was a great story. I thought it was a really cute premise drunk calling your brother, but you don't actually reach your brother. Instead, you reach someone who has a conscience and can't just let you sit outside the bar, drunk off your ass, refusing to get into a cab, and thankfully refusing to let some guy you don't know take you home. I thought Joanne was a freaking hilarious drunk. And Eric was such a great standup guy. I mean really she's in the middle of givin [...]

I like this author's voice, she writes a super HOT book. I enjoyed this one but did feel it was somewhat underdeveloped. That said, the author doesn't overburden the story with secondary characters and the humour and emotion is well blended. I would describe Last Call as erotica as the sex does drive the storyline, there is a happy-for-now conclusion. The premise of the story is unique - heroine calls hero by mistake while completely shit-faced drunk in the wee hours of the morning. She is in a [...]

2.5 stars This would have been a sold 3 star, except it seemed like there was a missing chapter in there near the end. The beginning was good, an interesting way to set the characters up even though she was being sloppy drunk which isn't really cute. There was an inevitable climax and then sudden resolution. Completely out of nowhere. We needed one more chapter in there from her perspective showing her indecision, not just a quick sentence from her summing it up after the fact. That kind of ruin [...]

Nice short story from Olivia Brynn. Steaming hot sex sceans but still very well wover characters.Eric is a fire fighter want to simply enjoy his holiday by getting full sleep but by his luck he get call from a drunk girl who need her brother to pick her but called on wrong no. But due to his gentelness Eric gone to pic her and take care of her.but faith want more from him for the beautiful girl in his arms.Johanna is sweet but fun loving girl I like her max when she was drunk. But she was sweet [...]

Couldn't finish. Made it to page 60 and stopped. There was absolutely no story. It's less than 100 pages and pretty much all sex with no substance. Definitely not worth the money.I am not much for labeling but c'mona girl who works that fast after a break up isn't right in the head. The "story" came off totally trashy and ridiculous. Josie comes off as a cheap, ditzy tramp/fluzie (I really couldn't decide which word I liked better to describe her), though, she is admittedly a funny drunk. Over t [...]

This was such an awesome story even though it was short! You can read it super fast, but it was so very fulfilling! Very original, refreshing storyline, awesome characters, a hero that will melt your heart and super smokin hot in the bedroom! The banter between these two was hilarious and I couldn't help but think that it all came full circle, wrapped up nicely with a bow on top, heart warming and perfect! Of course I wanted more, but it's a novella and I was thoroughly pleased! Will read this a [...]

Wow this was a really really short booky 4 chapters. Not happy about that for the price it's being offered at. I did enjoy the story though, I just wish that Olivia Brynn would've taken the story just a little further & not left the entire ending to our imagination. A one night stand that turns out hilariously funny & sad at one point but does end up with a good feeling. I would recommend it but it needs an ending that fits the story.

5 STARSFantastic Novella!This is the first time I have read anything by Olivia Brynn, and it will NOT be the last. I loved her writing style and her ability to not only tell, but show a story. For the entire review please visit: guiltypleasuresbookreviews

I don't usually read books in this genre. It's an interesting read, I wouldn't really recommend it though to people I know. It's great if you need a quick read out of boredom, might even stir up some " feelings". But I'll admit, I'd like to see it expanded. Mainly because I want to know how Josie's brother will react to his sister's decision in pursuing a relationship with Eric.

4 star for short and sexy novel ;)I think the plot is very interesting.Anyway who will pick up the totally stranger that call in middle of the night, if not our hero Erik .Erik is totally good guy , very very gooood while our heroine is cute drunken girl :)this novel is very fun and sweet , I love it

This book was a surprising bit of erotic fun. A dialed wrong number, a bad break up, drunk heroine, and a kind fire fighter make for some very sexy reading. I liked both of the leads very much. Could it have been longer? Yes. But this story story is a nice little bon bon that makes we want to read more of this writer.
